Answer:

The spherical storage tank can provide 358,000,000 BTU's.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Approximately 91,500 BTU one gallon of propane yields.

<u><em>The figure is not shown in the question, so below is figure attached:</em></u>

Now, to find the quantity of BTU's the spherical storage tank can provide.

The radius (r) of the tank = 5 ft.

Now, to get the volume of tank using formula of sphere:

<u>Using the value of π = 3.14.</u>

Volume=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\\\Volume=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14\times 5^3\\\\Volume=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14\times 125 \\\\Volume=523.33\ ft^3.

Now, to convert the quantity in to gallon by using conversion factor:

1 ft³ = 7.48 gallon.

523.33 ft³ = 7.48 × 523.33 gallon.

523.33 ft³ = 3914.51 gallon.

<em>Thus, the tank can provide 3914.51 gallon.</em>

<em>As, approximately 91,500 BTU one gallon of propane yields.</em>

Now, to get the BTU's the 3914.51 gallon tank can provide by multiplying 3914.51 gallon by 91,500 BTU:

3914.51\times 91,500\\\\=358177665\ BTU.

Hence, rounding to the nearest million is 358,000,000 BTU's.

Therefore, the spherical storage tank can provide 358,000,000 BTU's.

The value of y varies directly with x and y = 4.5 when x = 0.5. find y when x = 10
Pepsi [2]
So what you asked this is what I got

x(y) = 4.5

If x= 0.5 then 

0.5(y) = 4.5
y=9

x(y) = 4.5

10(y) = 4.5
y= 0.45



hope this helps :)
